In 1989 she was elected to the Board of Directors of NYAEA and in early 1990 was appointed to fill the unexpired term of treasurer. In the spring of 1990 she was elected treasurer and served one year of that term before being elected president in 1991.
During her term Stewart curated the Past Presidents Show, an exhibition of works by Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Jacob Lawrence, and Louise Nevelson.

To celebrate NYAEA's 50th Anniversary (1947-1997), the first of five exhibitions was presented in the Broome Street Gallery in July of 1996. There will be three other shows in 1997 and the fifth will be exhibited at the Art Students League in early 1998.
